We youths have the tendency to call our friends with nicknames. But our community has excelled in this field too. Many families or certain person of the family in the Pathare Prabhu community were called by Topa Naava (nick names as we know them).
The Topan Nava could be due to various reasons, the way a persons name sounded, a funny incident in which he was involved, his appearance or just because he belonged to a particular family.
This section is in typical sense of humour of the Pathare Prabhu Community. The person concerned should take it lightly. We do not intend to harm anybodies sentiments.
